Free AI Medical Scribe from Heidi Health

Heidi Health automates note-taking with a high degree of customization: Clinicians can create highly detailed templates to capture the measures needed in their disciplines, or enlist the help of the Heidi team to create templates. Clinicians can add extra information after the patient interview. Different levels (brief versus detailed) can be chosen. Heidi is so confident in the value of their customizations that basic, vanilla note-taking is offered for free as part of their ambient AI scribe offering.

In this extensive video, Tom Kelly, MD, Founder & CEO, explores many aspects of automating clinical administrative tasks. He lays out the value of automated note-taking in four specific areas.

Primary care is complex because of the variety of patients and conditions seen.

Mental health is particularly challenging because the patient’s intonation and general presentation are crucial. Thus, Heidi is exploring audio diagnostics, which can interpret vocal markers such as pitch and tone.

Some disciplines, such as dentists, require support because they can’t interrupt what they’re doing to write something.

Finally, surgeons and certain other disciplines place a high value on their time.

Heidi is integrated with the most popular EHRs. It can extract information from previous notes to inform the current note-taking session, then upload the final note into the proper fields of the EHR.

An SDK allows specialized systems to incorporate Heidi seamlessly. Clinical sites can outfit other systems with Heidi using APIs.

He suggests that accuracy—as measured by how the clinicians’ and patients’ words are captured—is less important today in the age of AI and LLMs. Problems in transcriptions can be caught by AI. To him, the most important achievement of a note is to determine what’s important, as a human resident would do. He says that great notes are simple, synthesizing the points that matter to the next doctor.
